As the raiders come under attack from American carrier-based aircraft, Ensign Nogami, a young Ohka pilot, insists on being launched in his Ohka, but the crew of his Betty refuses. The bomber is destroyed, hurling Nogami into the void. He survives the failed raid and manages to return to base, where he meets the crew of the Betty that will fly him on a mission the following day, as well as two surviving Zero pilots who vow to help him succeed in his mission, even if it costs them their lives. On board the American carrier, the pilots receive news from their captain that the attacking Betties were carrying Ohkas.
